Treaty Elders Memorial Round Dance

Honouring Our Elders

The Office of the Treaty Commissioner and the Chief's Office of the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations co-hosted their first Treat Elders Memorial Round Danced on March 27, 2004. They hosted the Memorial Round Dance to honour the Elders who helped them in their discussions with the governments of Canada and Saskatchewan and who also helped them in their efforts to bring awareness and understanding about treaties and the treaty relationship to the people of Saskatchewan.

Memorial Round Dances are held during the winter months throughout Treat 4, 5,6,8, and 10 territories in the prairies.
